SEUVED II1S DEAD KING
Faithful to Ills Vow, Scottish Noble,
nan Atuenptetl to Convey Heart of
Robert Druco to Holy Irftnd Stop
Veil to Fight Moors on Way and
Met 1 1 In Death.
Karl James Douglas wax born in
Lanard, Scotland, on December 31,
12S6, and was slain by the aracens
In Spain In 1330.- He It was who
Btarti-d for the Holy Land with the
heart .of Robert Druco one of the
most romantic and foolhardy adven
tured recorded In hlHtory. '
Within the pictures ruins of Mel
rone, lies burled the. heart of Itobert
Bruce.
This valiant king of Scotland was
attacked by leprosy, and when he
found that he was to die ho called
to him the chiefs and barons who had
been faithful to him, and asked them
i to pledge themselves to keep the en
tire kingdom together for his son
David.
lie also asked them to crown him
king ns soon as he reached the prop
er age, to obey and Serve him well,
and marry him to some lady suitable
to his station.
The king then asked Sir James
Douglas to step forward, and In thel
presence of all the knights he asked
of him his last service. Addressing
him as "My Dear Friend Lord James
Douglas," he recalled to this faith
ful follower that he bad suffered
many troubles In order to hold the
rights of his crown; and then he add
ed, that he had made a vow to go on
a crusade Rnd fight for tho Holy
Sepulchre.
"My heart has always leaned to
this point," he said, "but our Lord
was not willing, and gave me so
much to do in my lifetime that my
body cannot accomplish what my
heart wishes. I will, therefore, send
my heart In the stead of my body,
to fulfill my vow."
"I do not know any one knight so
gallant or enterprising or better form
ed to accomplish my Intentions than
yourself. And I beg and entreat you,
The Costly Brier Pipe.
"people don't unnerstand brier pipe

they wouldn't consider a llvo or Hlx

Unow, for Instance, Unit a brier pipe
after 1(3 completion Is put awny to
season for nine or ten years? French
brier la tho best material for the.se
pipes. It Isn't, though, brier, and It
doenn't coinu from France. It conies
from ctyinliloglcally' speaking the
word 'bniycre, which menus 'furze.'
French brier Is really Italian furze
root, a growth of the Tuscan . Alps.
The plant Is as carefully cultivated as
tolmceo Itself. All the sprouts and
leaves are kept well pruned; Ibiiii all
the sap goes to the root's nourishment.
The root Is cut when fully developed
and boiled and dried before shipment.
Afterward the plpemiikcr bolls and
dries It again. And when the pipe Ih
finished he stores It nwny for further
drying a matter of right years r so.
Tho best brier pipe Is one ut cross
wise of the grain, and the praln should
he blrdse; e. Such a pipe lasts n lifetime-run
be handed down from father
to son. Of course It's dear.'
Only the Truth.
A virtue carried to excess may be
come rldlculuiis. To such action one
may well preach, "lie temperate In all
things," even In virtue. Amelia Ople,
the L'ngllsh authoress, wns not content
with any half measures, ns Is shown
In a letter from her quoted In "ijuaUer
Pictures." by Wilfred Whltten. Mrs.
Ople's course of conduct U to be re
spected as proceeding from her con
scientious nature, but fiction readers
may congratulate themselves that her
opinions are not universal.
Before she became a Quaker she
wrote fiction. After her conversion she
was asked to contribute a story to a
magazine. Her answer to the editor
ran as follows:
"Thou knowest or ought to know that
since I became a Friend I am not free
to what is called to moke a story. I
will write a fact for thy perusal or any
little matter of history or truth or a
poem If thou wlshest,' but I must not
lie and say such and such n thins took
place when it did not. Dost thou understand?"

Then it was enclosed in a small cas
ket which Kir James attached to a
chain and wore about his neck. He
left Scotland for the port of Mont
rose and went to Sluys, in Flanders to
see if any company was then starting
for Jerusalem.
At Sluys, he waited 12 days, never
going on shore, hut receivlnR visitors
In k:nply ctyle, serving superb ban
quets and telling all who came the
story of his expedition as King
Itolieft ha.l asked him to do wher

and it had to be submitted to congress.
Congress has a habit of ruttliiK lis
bills In two. To make allowance for
this he jumped his bill to $10,nuo. He
sent the bill to the governor for his
approval. The governor, having also
heard that congress generally appro
printed only half us much as was ask

then sent to one of the congressmen.
Reing friendly to the contractor, he
Jumped .lt to $!0.0(o nnd sent It to an
other Oregon congressman for his ap
